Buying Caone question

I got an OT Discovery 164
new for $410.00 but had to put it together. (It was not that hard but ask for tips here as I did)



This was the best bang for the buck I saw when doing the same thing you are doing, looking for something fairly nice and not crap for a cheap price.



This boat handles nice, not too bad with the weight and is bomb proof!



If you enjoy paddling after a few years, upgrade then.



Good luck and don’t be turned off by other posts bashing the Discovery series. It is a good boat with very good secondary stability. I have never tipped the canoe with my 65lb. dog in it so I don’t think that is an issue either.

there is a reason
all those reviews on P-net rate the boats 9 or ten…
